scilly owl Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Wednesday is in the Hirst blood...I don't know what went on with David or why he's pi••ed off but let's hope that there is enough love in the bank to keep the Hirst/Owls relationship going. Game time would definitely help, maybe those early season cup games would be an ideal opportunity to let George off the leash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
island owl Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 We need to keep a talent like Hirst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Batman Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 He's probably not in Portugal coz we've already got half a dozen strikers to give game time to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelcityowlsfan Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Why are people making a big deal about him being taken to Portugal? He had a long season with the U23's and U18's, plus he played for England after the domestic season ended. Other than a bit of team bonding doesn't he deserve a rest?

Last_Great_Hope Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 1 hour ago, striker said: Thought it was ominous that he didn't go to Portugal. Would have liked to see him given game time this season. Is it more the fact that we have eleventy million strikers needing game time? The youth we have taken are defenders where we are light of bodies. Preseason is for fitness so the first team strikers all need game time.

Not being funny but Hirst Snr has made it entirely clear many times that he regrets not going to Man Ure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Ron's Sovereign Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 7 hours ago, WayneTheOwl said: Guessing the management might regret weeing Hirst senior off. Can see George letting his contract run down, us getting 350k for him, 2 years time transfers to Man U or somet for 35 million and goes on to beat Rooney's scoring record for England. Only way I can see this not happening is if he gets game time for the first XI but I can't see that happening anytime soon. 6 hours ago, richowl said: When did the management wee wee Hirst Sr off? He was the the one touting his son to the big boys behind the clubs back. 39 minutes ago, steelowl said: Agreed IMO would've been good management to keep him interested but tbh thinking it through I was hoping that was because loan deals are maybe being discussed for him and he could go join in with whoever he's joining. However as others have said the spat between DC and his dad is dangerous to the dream of the lad playing for us Is there any truth to the Hirst/ DC falling out or is it another OT Chinese whisper that has become fact?

Guest wilyfox Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 People are too sentimental over the kid because of daddy. Still looks like a boy to me, and probably a couple of years off making an impact here. He might not wanna wait that long, and daddy may not want him to. If he goes for BIG money and a sell-on, I'd be content. £1m is pathetic for one of the brightest footballing talents in this country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IstillhateSteveBould Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Seriously why would he want to stay? Our transfer policy means there's virtually no pathway into the first team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethel The Tree Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 So Leicester have made the first 'official' bid? Who knows, it might trigger some kind of auction between now and the end of August An attractive fee with favourable add-ons might tempt Mr C to sell, but in the meantime what's the rush? He's still under contract and the only way we could reasonably match what PL clubs can offer in wages is to get promoted ourselves I'd prefer to see him out on loan until January and then take stock from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hirst is the right player at the wrong time. Inevitable he will go, and it's about time we made some money in the transfer market. That mob across the city put us to shame in that area.

StudentOwl Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Wednesday fan logic: Don't kid that only established himself in U23 squad in the second half of last season: HE MUST BE OFF Take and don't play kid in Portugal because there are 6 other strikers ahead of him on the team: WHY DID WE BOTHER TAKING HIM THEN Still has 12 months left on his contract: HE'S GOING SO SOON Kid who in reality is far from being the best in the U23 squad: WHY HE NOT START GAMES OVEER BETTER PLAYERZ IN U23s?? When we reject a £1m deal: BUT HE'LL LEAVE AT END OF SEASON AND WE GET NUTHIN!! Seriously, some of you are chuffing tragic. Kudos to the majority that are keeping some sort of level though process over this, and, ya know, understand how the tribunal system works for players under the age of 24 at the end of their contracts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
